    If all else fails, invest in some fake tits! (;

    I also went from a DD to C. I'm not happy that my boobs disappeared, but I'll take a smaller chest to have the body I have now. I'm way hotter in a 34C bra than I was in a 40DD. Way.

    ripped usually implies a very low body fat percentage, e.g. 15% or less in women.... you can be fit, toned, healthy and in excellent shape without cutting your body fat percentage so low. Most women don't have much boob left at such low body fat percentages, and the fitness models you see with big boobs and 6 pack abs generally have had implants (bear in mind that doesn't account for individual differences so I'm not saying it's impossible to have 6 pack abs and reasonably big boobs at the same time, just that most women won't). But then you don't have to cut your body fat percentage that low, many women prefer how their bodies look between 20-25% body fat, which is still well within the healthy range, and keeping boobs would be one reason some women will choose to not go below these levels of body fat. It's important to consider all these things in terms of what your goal is, because it is your body and it's about what you want. You can't override genetics, but then you do seem to be genetically gifted in the boob department, so you probably do stand a better chance of having larger boobs at a lower body fat percentage. And also, if you find that they get smaller than you really want, you can always gain a little weight back again, and maintain your weight at the point where they're bigger. If you're in the healthy body fat range and you're fit, strong and active, then how much you lose after that is purely about aesthetics and personal preference.

    pretty much this. though i will say that mammary tissue is not fat tissue. so the occasional woman is genetically well-endowed enough to never lose more than a cup size.

    looking at your pic, your BF% is not that high and your boobs are amazing, so i'd wager that you would be in that blessed minority.

    Mine are completely gone after 6 pregnancies and losing weight. I had to choose between boobs and flat tummy....I took the flat tummy


    And I will buy myself some nice perky boobs.

    Try it and see how you feel. You can always gain a bit of weight if you want to.

    You are gorgeous and I wish my boobies weren't the first thing to go when I lose weight.

    I am not ripped (yet), but interestingly enough, I've lost a lot of weight and my boobs have changed only relative to the amount of weight I lost. I actually started at a 44DD or so, and am now a 36G (ish). I have been lifting heavy for the last month or so... will keep you posted on what happens! I think some of us must just be genetically inclined to keep fat in certain places.

    Looking at your profile, you've already lost about 25 lbs. Has there been a profound effect on your Babylons? If they are pretty much the same, you probably have real boobies. Mine are just fat, so they are first to go in weight loss.

    what everyone said here is pretty much dead on

    there is no such thing as spot reduction. people will lose weight / fat from different areas at diff speeds.

    i think its safe to say if you lose weight, you will lose some size in your breasts.. but generally speaking, if you're a curvy girl and these are your genetics.. i cant imagine they will shrink from huge to tiny.

    But they will prolly change a bit.

    The best way would be make the changes in the healthiest way possible. Eat clean - at a caloric deficit, and lift heavy / train strength

    I'm sure youll be fine =)

    Just a lovely woman I hope that man treats you right. I can imagine with your body type you'll probably always be large chested and have that beautiful hourglass figure. You can't change genes. It will just be proportionally smaller.

    I have always had larger breasts (150lbs and 34/36DD). I am currently at 132lbs with a comfortable 34D, and I am at 16-18% body fat if you consider that ripped. I definitely lost a little bit up top, but it was the absolute last thing to go.

    I would love to know the same thing! I'm currently a 34H and 149.2lbs. I started this site at a 40DDD and 182.6lbs. So, my cup size is the same, but with a smaller band size. When I was 120lbs in my teens, I was a 32DDD. Oh, I'm just under 5'2 :smile: I think it's safe for me to say that I'll always be large chested I guess. The thing is, the smaller I get, the bigger they appear in comparison to the rest of me LOL

    ETA a few things

    Since you have - and want to keep - very large boobies it seems that you're probably always going to be in the overweight category of the bmi so you're one of the rare cases where perhaps the bmi is not an accurate representation of your health.

    Good gosh youre gorgeous!.
    I sincerely hope you keep those curves.
    From my own experience i tend to loose my boobies with weight loss. I am currently a DD and sitting at around 190lbs, at 140lbs i was a C cup and thus the cycle has continued as i Yo-Yoed over the years. Very frustrating for a lover of lingerie.

    You will at least be proportionally smaller. When your body is slim and fit, they will still be and look big on your smaller, firmer, fitter body. I don't see the point in worrying about it at this point. Work on your fitness, enjoy the positive changes and stop or take a step back if you feel you don't want to lose anymore. You don't need to go all the way to ripped. They may droop a little (I've heard), but if you take it slow and allow time for the skin to bounce back that will help a lot, especially if you are young. And you can get a bra fitting. Moisturizing is worth a try. Also chest exercise, like pushups and bench press.

    Wow!...you are stunning!. You have the perfect figure!, your figure is exactly what I am aiming for, I just wish I had some idea of what I need to lose to get there!.

    I am a 42F, at my lightest I was a 34/36 DD/E I think, but that was over 10 years ago, so I can't be quite sure. I'm hoping that because they've grown as I've gained weight, that they will get smaller as I lose it, but I don't want them to look deflated either.

    I hope you are right... I used to scoff at my BMI saying 'BMI doesnt apply to real people like me'....

    now I see that was me just making excuses....

    BMi is a guideline based on averages. All people are real people. Depending on your health and aesthetic goals BMI may not apply to you in the same way as others (partly why there is has such a large range, but some people still fall below and above). This can involve frame size (extra large or extra small), having larger amounts of muscle, or a fat distribution combined with bone structure and muscle development that is still healthy (get into a detailed talk with your doctor on this, if you have a good doctor), or desirable for other reasons of your choice.

    You are beautiful, Beautiful face, hair, the boobies/curves. You won't lose that if you strength train, reasonable defect, be active, and monitor. Also weight loss is never permanent. If you dislike the results, gain some back.

    Also, there is the misconception that boobs are only fat. Not true.
